    <p>Genres allow a way to organize large collections of information, whether it be books, music, or TV channels. In Cumulus TV, channels can be given genres that allow you to better find them in the app and in Live Channels.</p>
<h2 id="page_System_Genres">System Genres</h2>
<p>In the default channel editor, there is a way to set which genres you want a channel to be. When <a href="Parsing_M3U_Playlists.html">importing M3u playlists</a>, there are attributes which can set the channels' genres.</p>
<p>Cumulus TV will work with all genres, although Live Channels uses a subset of potential genres. Consider using these for maximum compatiblity:</p>
<ul>
<li>&quot;ANIMAL_WILDLIFE&quot;</li>
<li>&quot;ARTS&quot;</li>
<li>&quot;COMEDY&quot;</li>
<li>&quot;DRAMA&quot;</li>
<li>&quot;EDUCATION&quot;</li>
<li>&quot;ENTERTAINMENT&quot;</li>
<li>&quot;FAMILY_KIDS&quot;</li>
<li>&quot;GAMING&quot;</li>
<li>&quot;LIFE_STYLE&quot;</li>
<li>&quot;MOVIES&quot;</li>
<li>&quot;MUSIC&quot;</li>
<li>&quot;NEWS&quot;</li>
<li>&quot;PREMIER&quot;</li>
